| 3 | 783, 3129 |
| 261, 1043 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 261 x 1043 = 816669
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/816669
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 221/783,6307/3129 is 17/816669
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 783,3129 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(783,3129) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(783,3129) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(783,3129) = ( 783 × 3129 ) / 3
LCM(783,3129) = 2450007 / 3
LCM(783,3129) = 816669
